EVENING EDITION.
LORD CHURCHILL AND THE MIN
ISTBT. - ; '
We mentioned in Sunday's paper
that there were indications of a split
in the Tory Administration. Lord
Randolph Churchill refused to attend
the Tory meeting at Liverpool jit
which the Ministers held a banquet.
- Sir Stafford Northcote also remained
away. Some of the papers consider
this conduct as cnurlish and un
worthy. The London . Times says
. the incident shows the want of unity
in the Tory party. The following
comes from London:
He" telegraphed to' the meeting an ex
. pression of sympathy with the objects of
, the meetine, but plainly stated that he must
decline to take part in it because the two
Conservative members from that city had.
in the House of Commons voted m ; disap
proval of the government s policy towards
Ireland and on the medical relief bill. . The
. Liverpool meeting was postponed because
of Lord Kandolph s refusal to attend. He
- has agreed to go to Liverpool a month from
now and address a meeting of Conserva
tives there on hia own account. The ex
citement in Liverpool over last night's oc
. currence was very great to-day."
The London Standard denounces
. Churchill bitterly. It says: j
"It is time to speak out. - We will not
be imposed upon by this overgrown
. schoolboy verging on middle age, but with
out a man's senses Lord Saulsbury must
decide quickly or Churchill,having already
worked irreparable harm will ruin the
' Conservative party. ;...
. "The parting shoot describes Lord Ran
. dolph as a miserable, absurd imitation of
- Disraeli, without one-fifteenth part of hia
ability.'? , ' . !
Now we do not ; bold . this young
Lord in any high admiration and yet
it might be required by justice and
. fair dealing to say that he was prob
ably displaying more foresight and
wisdom than the older heads in the
- Cabinet. The Tories can only, suc
ceed by having a clearly defined pol-
icy and entire harmony. If the Tof
; ry party divides on either its foreign
policy,: its domestic policy f or. itfe
, policy in dealing with Ireland there
Will be inevitable; defeat and thai
very quickly. Now . it was i'. nnderj-
stood that the Tories at Liverpool
. ' were opposed to the; policy hat had
, been adopted , by; wthe Ministry in
dealing with . the Irish ; questions!
Lord Churchill . declined ; to . atten4
"4 any such . meeting. V The Minister!
with two exceptions went.Y, Was it
not a rather happy stroke on the part
of the, young Tory, leader to force an
s. issue in time ? '.If. Liverpool kicked
, why nbt-Mancbester or London also?
v If Ireland is nof i to ibe" cbnciliated
will the 80 or 90 Irish Home Rulera
vote with the . Tories ? If they do.
not itis certairi that the Ministry!
will be defeated. ani driven from!
f -office. Lord Churchill -was - much!
nearer right tt than a some i of
, the older ; members of - the . Min4
. iatry were on the Medical Relief
bill upon which they were defeated J
- ord Churchill knows that the tenure
of office of his , party is brittle and
. may break and will break; unless the:
uses m the campaign are wise, broad
ana umely, and are accepted willing
Jy by the entire party. At heart Eng
land is and Scotland is very largely
Liberal. The policy of Mr. Glad
stone and his,

having a good effect.'- That class of
Northern papers , that, are forever.
misrepresenting pe bouth have pro
bably been silent fora week. Tbere
is 8till!another class that have no love
for the South, but still lean toward a
hushing -of -f sectional denunciations.
These are moved by what Grant felt
and said. Long jears ago, in !the
fnll flush of his fame, the Northern
ViorA "Tifit. n hftvfl neace." But
. ;. , - ,
peace did not come. The North was
not then ready to lei the South alone
or to give' it a fair chance in the race
of life. The darkest days the South
,f elt was after Grant's, words had be
fiome he DroDertv. of the press, r But
time heals sorrows'and closes wounds,
And so it has come to pass that the
lasi- p.Tnressions of reconciliation by
the dead hero are having: an influence
among the very people that needed
it most. It has come to pass,
through these , kindly and patriotic
words that in the funeral cortege
Federals and Confederates will walk
side by side as pall-bearers, and both
South and. North will unite in doing
honor to the most illustrious man of
the North
nay, the most illustrious
man in the whole country at the time
of his death. i
The Philadelphia News is a very
decided Republican paper and bits
.1.- n ' j
the South often. It is influenced
enough by Gen. Grant's words to say:
"With Sherman and Sheridan, now the
two foremost of the Union soldiers in rank
and popular estimation, : will' walk with
Johnston and Buckner, two of the most
distinguished ex Confederate . Generals.
These four, clasping hands over the bier of
Grant, fittingly and beautifully testify;to
the realization of the desire for peace and
perfect reconciliation, which was dearer ! to
the heart of Gen. Grant than the memory
of his victories. Any lingering sectional
animosity must shrink in very shame from
such a spectacle and disappear forever.
CONVICTS.'.
The States south of us continue to
discuss the abuses of the convict sys
tem. The Savannah Times says:
" 'What to do with our convicts?' is a
question not confined to the 8outh alone,
but it xs being agitated in the JNortn as well.
Reports of the inhuman treatment of con
victs has aroused renewed interest in this
question, and the belief that the competi
tion of convict with honest labor is on the
increase, has served to excite a good deal of
indignation.
Even the women of Alabama are
said to be" excited over the matter
and . are agitating to secure a repeal
of the system; They denounce the
putting of "free men in competition
with convicts." It is very certain
that the abuses will have to go. It is
also very certain Jhat soon or late all
the States will be compelled by pub
lic sentiment to cease to hire out the
convicts and in lieu thereof teach
hem trades. If the penitentiaries
are to be used . as reformatories as
well as penal institutions then, two
things are certainly necessary: first, a
scientific study of each convict; and,
second, to be taught so he can earn
an honest living, if ever turned loose
upon society.
The question is a difficult one - to
handle. If the convicts are kept in
prison they mast work. ' If they all
earn trades the business will be over
done if they are turned oat, and their
abor may interfere .with free labor
while-; confined serving i out their
terms:'

theJaff Mall ' Gazette has exposed
the reeking corruption of the nobility
a scandal breaks out from which it
appears that Sir Charles -Dilke has
invaded the sanctity of the. home of
a brother Radical and now he issued
f or $125,000 damages. 'This is a very
usrlv case for a reformer. -This Sir

So far as the character of Mr. Lee is con
cerned the Democrats have made a good
choice, and he is undoubtedly popular with
a kind of ooDularltv that is very taking in
the Booth. JLSevs iorc limes.
There is a covert sneer and slur in
this way of referring to Gen. Fitz
Lee. What is that "kind of popu-
larity that is very taking in the
o T .
South? " Gen. Lee is a man of pure
life and upright character. He is a
man of honor, was a true soldier, is
an excellent citizen. He tells the
truth, bears himself above suspicion
in every relation of life, is just and
generous and wears his honor on his
sieeye. wny Bnouia notsucn a man i
be .popular? r Is it not creditable to
any people that they appreciate such
a character? What sort of popular
ity is it that is very taking in the
North? Is it Blaineism or B utlerism?
Gen. B.
F. Cheatham, recently
speaking of Grant's magnanimity,
said that he carried off himself three
horses and without these the boys
could not have made a crop. This
was the way. A few general officers
got more than their share of the
horses but the privates came home
afoot and horseless, and even the
Colonels of many regiments, as the
late Capt. Shotwell said in the Ra-
I leigh Chronicle of last week, were
compelled to foot it. Grant doubt
less meant well, but the fact is there
were few horses left when the Con
federates got to Appomattox and so
they could not be much benefited by
Grant's considerate order.
The New York Herald would like
to see Gen. Lee's remains deposited
by the side of Gen. Grant's remains.
That would be a sight- to move the
nation, but the South would never
agree that the last resting place of
its greatest soldier should be any
where else than in the State that
gave him birth. The suggestion is
kind however.

For a period of more than a dozen years
our folks have? been, denouncing the Inter
nal revenue, or ;the, system by which it is
gathered into the Federal Exchequer. Our
folks are now controlling th dAnttnioa t
the people and j collecting these internal
revenues. Was it wrong to collect taxes
on whiskey andtobacco under .Republican
rule? If so, it "Is: "equaHy.'wrong under
Democratio rhle. "Was the manner of its
assessment: ? the ' mode of ' its- collection
wrong, under , .the Republican administra-Uont.-If
so. it cannot be right under a
Democratic administration. We are in
favor of whiskey, and tobacco bearing a
part of the burdens of our public 4ebt, but
are desperately opposed to this homfa nf
internal ! revenue? officials, and if no other
means can be devised to collect this tax
than the one now in operation, we might
be induced;' tp favor the abolition of the
lax, in order t to blot out the officials: but
